Savage Garden - Promises: chords

                       C#m     G#m        F#
Well, don't you know I need a little indulgence?
We'll listen to the hunter becoming hunted
Every day there's a million advances
But don't be too forceful; you'll ruin your chances

                       D#m          C#
well don't you know that time is a broken glass
        B                  A#m
that splinters against the wall
         G#m
but the picture is coming back now baby
A#m
and i want to take it all

Chorus:
          B                F#/A#        G#m             F#
don't go making all these promises you know you cannot keep
           C#m                                     F#
there's a time to play a king and a time to be a thief
               B                F#/A#        G#m             F#
cause if your making all these promises you know you cannot keep
          C#m                                             F#       B
you know time will be the thief and your fallen king will end up alone

So let your body move a little bit closer (Ooh, ah, ah, ah)
Silent like the sound proceeding a cyclone
Don't you know that powerful thinking (Ooh, ah, ah, ah)
Can be a force you don't wanna relinquish?

Well, don't you know that
They say that hanging on will justify the wait?
But patience and elated wisdom don't share a common phrase

Chorus

E                             F#
well i'm only hanging on for what goes down baby
E                         F#
i'm floating high and my feet don't touch the ground
E                         F#
i'd take advantage but i can't see through this charade
D#m           F#          G#m      F#          C#m
so don't you don't you go make it harder than hell
don't go making promises don't go making promises
         D#m               F#
when it comes down to the making
               G#m                 F#          C#m
you better be damned sure you can take it hey baby
Don't go making promises, don't go making promises
Ooh-ooh
Ooh, oh baby
Don't you know, baby? Yeah

Chorus:
Don't go making all these promises you know you cannot keep
There's a time to play the king and a time to be a thief
'Cause if you're making all these promises you know you cannot keep
You know time will be the thief and your fallen king will end up alone
Don't go making all these promises you know you cannot keep
There's a time to play the king and a time to be a thief
'Cause if you're making all these promises you know you cannot keep
You know time will be the thief and your fallen king
will end up alone, alone, alone

A fool, a fool, a lonely sorry fool
Oh baby, 'cause I told you, baby
